WHAT TO DO


The #Equifax Data Breach.
Over 140 MILLION persons living in the United States had Equifax loose all their private financial data, including addresses and social security numbers and financial account information.

If you got a notice that you were included in the data loss, then you should visit the Federal Trade Commission's (FTC) website to guide you. (Lets not just call it data breach, it was a LOSS of our data.)

Check it out before the current White House does any more work to strip the consumer protection functions of the FTC and other departments. Its still there from 2017, last year. 

Go to the FTC's guide on how to find out if your credit report information was lost by Equifax and what steps you can do to protect yourself. Here is the link, just click:
